Traitor's Loyal Dog Quest [Rebirth]
Chapter 5 Rewards
The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of his own thunderous heartbeat could be heard.
The boy's clear pale golden eyes swept over again, Jiang Yun was excited again, the fear in his heart was indescribable, as if he had been placed under the sharp teeth of a wild beast.
Perhaps it was out of the instinct to survive, at the moment when he was on the verge of collapse, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Jiang Yun's mind, Jiang Yun stood up slowly, moved towards the general with the highest rank among the nobles, and made a fearful look of seeking asylum.
The reason for this was simple, he wanted the boy to mistakenly think that it was the admiral who brought him to the casino.
No matter how high or low the young man's status was, he would not easily offend a nobleman at the general level.
The facts show that Jiang Yun made the right move in this risky move.
The young man was keenly aware of his subtle movements, and his shallow pupils immediately glanced at the general. Although his eyes were filled with displeasure and reproach, he did not attack him. He only ordered the guards in a low voice to throw Jiang Yun out of the casino.
Being escorted all the way down the stairs, until the bottom of the castle, Jiang Yun finally got rid of the fear that his hairs were standing on end.
The old butler stood at the stairs, as if waiting for him here specially.
Back in the room at the end of the corridor, Jiang Yun changed back into his prison uniform and was sent out of the castle by the butler himself.
When saying goodbye, the old butler asked him: "Gentlemen have kept you until now?"
Jiang Yun hadn't recovered from the shock just now, so he nodded in a daze.
The old butler smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "The future is boundless."
Before Jiang Yun could think about what he said, he was escorted away by the guards waiting outside the castle.
Instead of going back to the cell, he was sent to the construction site in the new district to continue the next job.
He accepted the task in a daze, and pushed the brick cart to the designated place with great effort, surrounded by strange eyes from prisoners and guards.
Jiang Yun didn't take it seriously, his mind was buzzing, over and over again were the few words that the boy said.
His thinking ability was gradually recovering, and he began to ponder the identity of the boy——
Can easily remember the order and suit of the two decks of cards.
Can stare at the general with reprimanding eyes.
The appearance of a young adult.
All the answers point to one person—Ilsa's prince, Logo.
This answer gave Jiang Yun another inexplicable palpitation.
Luo Ge has always been the most suspected Emperor Star blood in his heart.
But seeing him today, not only did he not feel the cordial sense of belonging to that boy as he imagined, but he felt extremely fearful and repulsive inexplicably.
Obviously, the young man's impression of him was also very unsatisfactory - he just touched his wrist, and the finger was wiped off, almost wishing to chop it off...
It was almost evening, and it was time for the [-]th camp to release the wind.
Jiang Yun spent two hours in his wild thoughts, but he didn't feel tired.
He found an open space with fewer people, sat on the bluestone bricks and looked up at the sky.
His arm was suddenly held by a hand, and an anxious "follow me" came from his ear.
Jiang Yun recognized that it was Fengzi's voice, and he didn't know when he developed a sense of trust. He stood up without hesitation, and followed Fengzi to the crowded place.
Jiang Yun asked eagerly in a low voice: "What happened?"
Fengzi explained concisely: "Zhao Si heard that you were left behind by the officer."
No need to ask who Zhao Si is, Jiang Yun can guess based on experience that this person is probably the "little overlord" of the twelve camps.
But what is so great about "being left behind by an officer"?Is it necessary to trouble him because of this?
"The military division is shy with us? Where are you trying to hide?"
A playful voice came from behind, Jiang Yun stopped, and Feng Zi in front also turned his head, with a look of embarrassment.
"You go first." Jiang Yun urged Fengzi to dodge with his mouth, turned around, and looked at the person behind him indifferently, "What do you want to do with me?"
"It's okay, I just heard that the military division is assigned to our camp, so I have to come to say hello no matter what, what do you think?"
The man opposite him had an unexpectedly kind face, a small man with a round face.
Perhaps the entire [-]th Battalion was filled with thin and thin prisoners of war, and Jiang Yun stood in it, looking a little abrupt.
Jiang Yun responded neither humble nor overbearing: "I'm Jiang Yun, what's your name?"
Zhao Si grinned and said: "Brothers, please call me Si Ye."
Jiang Yun didn't take this.
Call him fourth master?Isn't his status higher than Seventh Master?
Zhao Si took a few brothers and walked forward with their heads tilted, stood in front of Jiang Yun in a hurry, and said straight to the point: "I heard that the first time you entered that palace, you were photographed by the people above. Come out in the afternoon?"
He stared at Jiang Yun closely, with a pair of big round eyes with a ferocious smile: "Have you won a lot of rewards? It also makes our brothers happy, so I will have the energy to take care of you in the future."
It turned out to be asking for money.
Looking at Zhao Si's rascally smile, Jiang Yun wished he could smash his face with his fist.
Looking around from the corner of the eye, the prisoners of war who were still watching the excitement saw Jiang Yun's eyes asking for help, and they all scattered to avoid it and left the place of right and wrong.
Only Fengzi begged in vain for the brothers in the same cell, wanting them to help Jiang Yun together.
Jiang Yun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
Wherever there are people, there is fighting in the nest. The beast in front of him, he didn't know how to fight, but he is rampant when he enters the cell, he is a waste.
"Give me a word, military commander, what do you mean by sighing?"
Zhao Si's black and yellow round face got closer again, and Jiang Yun felt nauseated by his yin and yang voice.
Jiang Yun took a step back subconsciously, and replied in a calm tone: "It's the first time I take this kind of work, and I don't know how to ask those people for rewards."
The smile on Zhao Si's face went cold for a moment, and he stared at Jiang Yun expressionlessly: "What kind of garlic are you pretending to be?"
"No." Jiang Yun said calmly: "I really didn't get the reward. I was locked up in this kind of place. What's the use of saving money? If you need this, you should have told me earlier. I will try to ask for some reward next time." return."
Zhao Si stared into his eyes for a moment, took a step back slowly, and ordered to the prisoners beside him: "Search."
Jiang Yun clenched his fists and looked sideways at the Ilsa guard who was standing guard not far away.
He actually pinned his last hope for help on the enemy.
The guard was staring at this place, but his face was numb with calmness, and he didn't have the slightest intention to step forward to stop the dispute.
Zhao Si took a step forward, raised his chin and pointed to the guard at the other end, and said with a smile to Jiang Yun: "Did you see it? It costs money to bribe those grandsons, right? Why do you think our district has a longer time to release the wind than other districts?" A lot? Why don’t you spend money? It’s the same everywhere!”
Jiang Yun lowered his head in despair, even though the prisoners of war touched him all over, they found nothing.
After the prisoners searched, they turned to report to Zhao Si: "No!"
"Have you searched your shoes?"
Jiang Yun took off his shoes and stood barefoot on the gravel construction site, letting those people strip him of his last trace of dignity.
Before Zhao Silin left, he slapped his face hard with the back of his hand: "Boy, you are really honest, didn't you get any benefits?"
Jiang Yun didn't answer, rubbed the soles of his trousers, and pulled on his cloth shoes.
Zhao Si leisurely took a deep breath: "Don't be so stupid next time, if you don't get any money back, I'll cut off one of your fingers."
Jiang Yun raised his head suddenly, and the veins on his wrists bulged, "Brothers in need, even if you don't show affection, you have to be reasonable, right? The money is in other people's pockets, and I can force those grandchildren to reward me?"
Zhao Si curled his lips and looked helpless: "If you don't know it, go ask other people for advice. If others can do it, can you? Just because you are a military adviser, you are more noble than us?"
Jiang Yun's body trembled slightly, his phoenix eyes stared fiercely at Zhao Si, and asked in a low voice, "Which cell do you live in?"
Zhao Si sneered, and sarcastically said to the brothers beside him: "Hey, is the military master planning to seek revenge?"
Turning around, he stared fiercely at Jiang Yun: "Master is in Cell No. [-], waiting for you at any time."
At night, Jiang Yun tossed and turned.
If the day's gambling had not been caught, he might be able to make friends with the colonel, and it would not be difficult to borrow a little money.
But now, the colonel probably avoided him.
Fengzi in the next bed asked in a low voice, "Military Master, are you still awake?"
Jiang Yun was silent for a long time, then asked Fengzi softly: "Do you know where those prisoners of war who served the Ilsa nobles got their rewards from?"
Fengzi didn't realize that the military adviser was asking him, so he humbly asked for advice, "Where did you get it?"
Jiang Yun closed his eyes: "Forget it, go to sleep."
-
After seven days, when he entered the castle for the second time, Jiang Yun worried that he would not even be qualified to attend the banquet again.
After all, he had "sullied" Prince Ilsa's little paw, and the big men would be afraid even of themselves when they remembered the grudge.
Fortunately, the situation was more optimistic than expected. The old butler still politely led him into the changing room and picked out a fiery red dress for him.
The gentlemen in the banquet hall had the same attitude towards Jiang Yun. It was impossible to guess whether these people had forgotten the "King of Casino Kings" or deliberately turned a blind eye to him.
What is certain is that the colonel did not take the initiative to talk to him, and deliberately avoided his sight.
Naturally, Jiang Yun didn't intend to brazenly pester the colonel for a reward, but followed a few female prisoners of war all the way, trying to investigate how these people got the reward from the nobles.
The result is very simple: before the gentleman takes the girl to sit down, the prisoners of war will bow their heads and pull up the soft chair, wipe the table clean, and arrange the dessert or red wine glass beside the table.
What's more, he crawled directly on the ground and wiped the dust off the gentleman's leather boots with a handkerchief.
Those gentlemen would reward the prisoners with a few silver coins. It was the kind of currency with an eagle engraved on one side and the other side. It could not be circulated in Chu State, but it was in short supply in the concentration camps.
According to Fengzi, it only takes fifty coins to instruct Ilsa's guards to cripple a prisoner.
Converted into Da Chu's currency, it is equivalent to half a tael of silver for a leg.
Human life is worthless.
Jiang Yun didn't have time to feel the sorrow of the spring and the autumn, and pay homage to his dignity. He walked around calmly, and finally set his sights on a fifty-year-old Ilsa man.
Jiang Yun straightened the hem of her skirt and strode forward.
Stand still, bow, kneel on one knee, carefully polish the man's leather boots with his sleeve, stand up, bow again, "I hope you will enjoy yourself."
The man took out the coin and handed it to Jiang Yun.
You can't order it face to face, just touch it quickly with your thumb - there are six pieces, which is very generous.
Jiang Yun lowered his head, turned around dejectedly, and a pair of brown military boots came into view.
He raised his head—the colonel was holding his wine glass, one hand in his pocket, and the pen barrel was standing straight three steps away.
Shame and anger rushed to his head in an instant, and Jiang Yun's face flushed red.
It's nothing to be ashamed in front of strangers, but this man in front of him once had a drink with him on an equal footing.
"You need money very much?" The colonel took two steps closer and stared at Jiang Yun: "That's why you did that?"
"Do that" probably refers to the matter of "getting cheating".
The last time Jiang Yun did that was really not because he was crazy about money, but simply because he wanted to please the person in front of him.
The boy's clear pale golden eyes swept over again, Jiang Yun was excited again, the fear in his heart was indescribable, as if he had been placed under the sharp teeth of a wild beast.
Perhaps it was out of the instinct to survive, at the moment when he was on the verge of collapse, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Jiang Yun's mind, Jiang Yun stood up slowly, moved towards the general with the highest rank among the nobles, and made a fearful look of seeking asylum.
